There's no good way to say this is gonna sting
The rain is picking up, the jumps are raised an inch
You say that it happens
I hate it's happening to you

I don't believe in fate, except for when I do
Do I believe in love? I feel so strange for you
You say you'll hang on
When everyone is hung on you

And you're still looking for
Red stars at the river-end bars, you're killing your calm
And sipping it like juice
And I've been ringing alarms
I don't want your heart, I don't want no harm
Just a good day soon
'Cause you're killing your calm

There's no fair way to play, there's no right card to choose
There's no safe way to stray and no right words to use
You feel that you're sinking
When every week is so blue

And you're still looking for
And you're still looking for
Red stars at the river-end bars, you're killing your calm
And sipping it like juice
And I've been ringing alarms
I don't want your heart, I don't want no harm
Just a good day soon
'Cause you're killing your calm

'Round and 'round the karma bin
Nothing comes out, but a lot'll go in from you
A lot'll go in from you
Lash to lash, the whip abused
It's a bully of a hand, but look, it's bleeding too
Bleeding same as you

And you're still looking for
Red stars at the river-end bars, you're killing your calm
And sipping it like juice
And I've been ringing alarms
I don't want your heart, I don't want no harm
Just a good day soon
'Cause you're killing your calm

Red stars at the river-end bars, you're killing your calm
And sipping it like juice
And I've been ringing alarms
I don't want your heart, I don't want no harm
Just a good day soon
'Cause you're killing your calm
